The engine is the original 350 4bbl to the truck. It and the transmission had been gone through not too long
before the truck was no longer driven. It starts, runs and drives as it should. Everything under the hood is
correct. Everything on the engine is as it was in 1972. Correct date coded quadrajet which I did completely
rebuild, all correct brackets, spark plug wire looms, oil fillers, pulleys, brackets, air cleaner etc. I did of
course replace points, plugs, wires, cap, rotor etc. The air cleaner and a lot of other parts under the hood were
blasted and powdecoated satin black. I installed a new power steering pump, new lines, new rebuilt steering
sector box, new tie rod ends and sleeves new AC Battery, all new shocks, pretty much everything mechanical related
to the brakes front to back, Everything is in proper working order. I had the later 70's GM rally wheels
sandblasted and coated in the correct silver color, then wrapped in new BF Goodrich 33x12.50x15 All terrain TA
KO2's. All new center caps and trim rings of course on the wheels.
There is a brand new windshield and seal in the truck, new top glass weatherstrips, door opening weather strips
etc. etc. This K5 doesn't have so much or a rattle or squeak anywhere in it. The rear hatch has new
weatherstripping and shuts tight. You'll be amazed at how quiet this thing is compared to a lot of others.

I replaced i'd say every light bulb in the truck. Turn signals all work, I did instal a new turn signal switch in
the column so the signals now cancel after you turn a corner. Reverse lights, marker light, 4 way flashers, brake
lights all work. Heater works, original cigarette lighter works, high beam low beam lights work, doors lock and
unlock with the key, dash lights all work. The fuel tank was removed and cleaned, an NOS gm sending unit was
installed so the fuel gauge will work for another 50 years. The AC system is 100% complete and is still charged
with R12 freon. The system is in working order. The compressor makes some noise but does work. I had considered
buying a rebuilt compressor but don't know where I would find more R12 to recharge it. The system could be
converted to R134 if someone cares to do it.

The speedometer, oil, water, and volts gauges all work properly, the horn works perfectly. Also I installed a new
Comfort Grip steering wheel package designed for the 69-72 column.
I don't mean to bore anyone to death, I just want to be as thorough as possible while describing this truck. Other
than the tires, wheels, steering wheels, and 8 track stereo, this ole K5 is dead bone stock. And is so much fun to
drive and enjoy that way. If someone would like white steal wheels with original hubcaps and stock tires, that can
be arranged as well.

GM natural gas-powered vans recalled due to possible leak

Wed, Sep 24 2014

General Motors is recalling almost 3,200 of its compressed-natural-gas powered utility vans because of possible leaks. GM and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) released a notice last week saying that 3,196 Chevrolet Express and GMC Savana CNG vans are on recall, though no accidents have been reported due to the possible issue. The recall is specifically for vans for model years ranging from 2011 to 2014. The recall stems from a potential leak from the compressed natural gas high-pressure regulator, and such a leak could cause a fire or explosion. GM will replace the vehicles' high-pressure regulator in order to fix the problem, will do it free of charge and is instructing owners to contact Chevrolet or GMC customer service to arrange for the parts replacement. Utility vehicle makers like General Motors have pushed for fleet sales of CNG-powered vans and trucks for the past few years and have touted them for their cheaper refueling costs relative to standard gasoline, not to mention the fact that natural gas can be readily sourced from throughout North America (thanks, fracking). According to CNGPrices.com, compressed natural gas sells for about $2.22 a gallon, on average, while the AAA is pegging the average price of gas at $3.34 a gallon. NHTSA has posted information on the recall here. Featured Gallery News Source: NHTSA via Reuters Green Chevrolet GM GMC Natural Gas Vehicles CNG gmc savana

2016 GMC Terrain Denali Quick Spin

Tue, Nov 3 2015

Here's a bewildering statistic – General Motors sold over 347,000 GMC Terrain and Chevrolet Equinox crossovers in 2014, making the Theta platform twins the best selling vehicles in their segment. GM sold more Equinox/Terrain crossovers than Honda did CR-Vs, Ford did Escapes, and Toyota did RAV4s. After a week behind the wheel of the 2016 Terrain Denali, we can't fathom why GMC's entry, which accounts for nearly a full third of GM's annual small CUV sales, has been so popular. An inefficient engine, cheap interior plastics, uncomfortable seats, a shortage of technology, and a high price left us questioning why anyone would order this Denali over a Titanium-trim Ford Escape, a Jeep Cherokee Limited, or a Hyundai Santa Fe Sport with the Unlimited Package. Driving Notes While looks are subjective, we'd posit that GMC didn't go far enough with its 2016 mid-cycle refresh. New accents on the front bumper, a tweaked grille surround, and LED running lights round out the changes up front, while the rear gets a slightly different bumper. GMC claims there's a new hood, although we challenge you to pick out the differences – here are the official galleries for the 2013 and 2016, if you'd like to try. GMC missed a tremendous opportunity here. New headlights, some restyled taillights, and tweaked mirrors would have given the impression of a more significant refresh. As it stands, these changes don't add up to much. GMC also claims it made changes in the cabin, adding a "revised instrument panel center stack." Aside from the missing CD slot, which has been replaced with an oddly shaped and not terribly useful shelf, it's hard to spot much of a difference. The Terrain Denali's cabin materials feel cheap. You'll be spending at least $35,000 to park one of these in your driveway, but aside from the leather-and-faux-wood steering wheel, no material feels worthy of that price tag inside. The lower dash plastics are hard and scratchy, the center stack feels hollow and creaks when pressed on, and the too-small shade over the seven-inch display feels flimsy. The upper dash is covered in a cheap-feeling, leather-like material that looks unchanged from when the Terrain Denali debuted back in model year 2013. These materials don't make sense in a vehicle that, as tested, exceeded $41,000. The most egregious thing about the refreshed Terrain is the lack of content.

2015 GMC Yukon erupts into flames during Anaheim test drive [w/video]

Mon, 24 Mar 2014

A 2015 GMC Yukon burst into flames while on a test drive in Anaheim, CA on Sunday after smoke filled the cabin. Residents of the neighborhood where the driver abandoned the redesigned Yukon reported hearing a series of small explosions (likely the tires, based on the video), according to a report from KTLA and The Los Angeles Times.
No one was injured in the incident, which The Times reports occurred after a possible oil or fluid leak. As you can see in the image above, the Yukon was engulfed in flames, although the Anaheim Fire Department was able to put out the blaze in about 15 minutes.
"We're very lucky that no one got hurt, and it was in an area that... was safe," Lt. Tim Schmidt of the Anaheim Police Department told KTLA reporters. "If there was any place that was going to be safe, it would be this area. It's very open. It worked out for us."
